Lacs Jovet avec des fleurs de montagne — ©
Gilles Lansard

A short 2-day itinerary of moderate level, with relatively easy access. It offers a variety of landscapes (forest passages, alpine pastures) with a finale close to the glacial summits.

From summer 2024, bivouacking at Jovet lakes and Plan Jovet is strictly forbidden between July 1 and August 31. Swimming in the Jovet lakes is strictly forbidden to hikers and animals! A high-altitude lake has a very fragile ecosystem that must not be disturbed.

Further information on localisation

Access (by car): Join Les Contamines-Montjoie. Continue towards Notre Dame de la Gorge. Once there, before the "dead end" sign, park in the parking lot on the left.
